I think tiktok should be banned for its addictive algorithm. It is far worse than any other social media for that reason.

I think it should be banned because of all the noisy cunts using it on public transport.

How very "land of the free" of you

[–] Sorgan71@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Companies should not be free. Only people should be free. Companies exist to do what we want them too.

[–] Lulzagna@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Citizens should be free to choose which social media platforms there wish to use.

Companies are not free, which is why they must operate within the regulations and laws that protect consumers and the nation as a whole.

Banning TikTok only violates the freedom of citizens and does nothing to protect consumers or the nation. Your argument makes zero sense in this context.

And yet if a company is poisoning peoples minds they should be stopped from using it.

[–] Lulzagna@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Okay, so shut down twitter, Facebook, Fox News, rebel News, etc. Oh, what's that? You only want to shut down platforms that you disagree with? So "poisoning minds" was just a false projection.

I dont disagree with tiktok in a political sense, I mean the addictive algorithm.

[–] Lulzagna@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

You act like citizens are being handed crack cocaine.

It's just videos. If you don't believe in people having free will to watch videos on the Internet, you don't believe in freedom.
